About this listen

Take your comedy to new heights.

Learn more powerful techniques to make your comedy even more hilarious in this third book from the How to Write Funny series.

Harness the power of context, confidence, and a funny group of writers like the pros do on legendary TV shows like SNL or The Simpsons or at comedy institutions like The Onion.

Scott Dikkers will show you how it’s done. He’s cofounder and longest-serving editor in chief of The Onion, the world’s most popular humor publication, and founder of the Onion Training Center at the Second City in Chicago. He’s also a number one best-selling humor author, comedy performer, and winner of the Thurber Prize for American Humor.

How to Write Funniest lays out the simple steps to make your satire writing, humor writing, funny stories, or stand-up material the funniest it can possibly be by leveraging the brain power of a writers’ room.

But that’s just the beginning.

How do you lead a team of comedy writers, which insiders often say is like “herding cats”? How do you defeat stage fright, and what is context and why is it the most powerful tool in comedy?

Writers Scott has mentored, trained, or hired for their first comedy-writing job have gone on to win several Emmy Awards, written award-winning movies, and become best-selling comedy authors.

useful for those those who're serious about comedy

struggle to get through this book read the first two and found them interesting this one focuses a lot of that how to work within a team but I didn't find this one is useful

I didn't get all the way through to to the end either just finished 25 minutes before

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
